So How Do I Find the Right Size Wall Furnace For My Space?
A common, misguided way of choosing a wall furnace is to use simple, rule-of-thumb sizing methods like estimating based off square footage.
Unfortunately, there are many other factors that can raise or lower your BTU requirements dramatically, such as your climate, building structure, and more.
Outside of getting a complete sizing estimate of your space, your best bet is using our online wall furnace sizing calculator. Our proprietary software will lead you through some brief, yet specific, questions about your space and provide the best sizing.
Why is Sizing Important?
If your wall furnace is too small, it will run constantly while trying to meet the demand, but never get the room to the temperature you want. The furnace will also suffer from overuse and experience premature damage.
On the other hand, if the wall furnace is too large, you'll probably experience large temperature swings throughout the day, as well as lower-than-expected energy efficiency due to frequent cycling of the unit. This frequent starting and stopping could damage your system over time.
Also, don't forget about the extra upfront cost of buying a larger wall furnace than you need!
